She looked at his face and wanted to smother him in the warmest hug.  Ellie wondered if anyone had ever told Henry that he was valued and loved.  Maybe it was that? But she knew that Henry would not welcome such attention from her.  She did not have that kind of trust from him yet. Ellie decided she would try to make the mood a little brighter with an easy smile.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

She realized that growing closer to Henry and making him accept her as a life long partner would be difficult.  It would be like landing a rocket ship on a tiny boat in the ocean. Even if she knew the machinery well it would take skill, a careful hand and in truth a good miracle to accomplish this goal.

Even all this might not be enough, Ellie admitted to herself.  She could not count on it to be given simply on the efforts of her own actions.  She could only look off the side of the cliff before she fell and pray that he would be waiting to catch her.

Nadius Prime closed his bathrobe with a serene smile as he could feel his satisfaction from the moment.  He could hear the vibrations of the notifications as it rumbled against the porcelain dish next to his discarded watch.  He looked at it with some annoyance as he pulled his legs over the side of the bed. There was a serving cart that had been brought over by serving staff as he did this.  He liked how the servants had been chosen for their quiet and ability to predict their mistress mood. They had brought this even though he had not ordered them to do so. He found this deeply satisfying and felt a deep sense of ease.  A butler handed him a tablet with the emails that needed his urgent attention highlighted for his convenience. He nodded quickly before picking up his phone. The notification that flashed across the screen was from his godson Henry's number.  There was a small portrait next to the number which showed a stiff portrait of a rather serious ten year old who looked unhappy to be wearing formal clothing.

Nadius nodded as he opened the text message.  He squinted and put the phone further away from his face so he could read.  Nadius laughed outright as he heard the shower head in the bathroom turn off.  He could hear the quick pitpat of delicate feet as someone toweled herself off.  Providence was a small college town that was tucked away in the New English Countryside like a gem.  It was so small that people often forgot that it was just a stone's throw from the bigger metropolitan city of New York.  Sheng Mei Prime had taken a sixteen hour flight to get home, so she had in total been traveling for over two days when she had arrived at the house.  It was the intersection of two good omens that she had found her husband snoring in the living room. She had played a water prank on him to wake him up and his displeasure had instantly developed to happiness as he had caught her up in his arms.  Both were quite tired and sleepy, but that was all forgotten. Nadius knew that the only true reunion was for them in spending the night in the same room together in a quiet house. The vigor she had even as she approached advanced age made him chuckle as no one would expect such a delicate woman to be the instigator of late night fun.
